Editor's Note

Welcome to this special, first edition of Husky Hits for the 2015–2016 academic year. I'm excited about the start of the new year and the launch of our new online resources, PORTAL+ and the rebuilt sjsla.org. Just a quick programming note for our returning families:

Based on feedback we've received from the community, we're going to try delivering Husky Hits on Sunday mornings this year, rather than Friday afternoons. Our hope is that by giving you the newsletter at the start of a new week instead of at the end, it'll arrive at a time when everyone is a little more open to the ding of an email hitting their inbox. Regular delivery will begin this week, on September 13!
